The measurement of flow properties, such as the zero shear viscosity, of protein solutions is of paramount importance for many applications such as pharmaceutical formulations, where the syringeability of physiologically effective doses is a key property. However, the determination of these properties with classical rheological methods is often challenging due to e.g. detrimental surface effects o

The difference in altitude between the proximal limit of the femoral head and the tip of the greater trochanter - the articulotrochanteric distance (ATD) -was recorded in 312 patients with slipped capital femoral epiphysis and compared with that in normal hips. The ATD was markedly reduced after severe slipping, independent of the method of treatment. In mild or moderate slippings, the ATD differe

Purpose: Hip dislocation in cerebral palsy (CP) is a serious complication. By radiographic screening and prophylactic surgery of children at risk most dislocations can be prevented. CPUP, the Swedish CP registry and follow-up program, includes annual radiographic examinations of children at Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels III-V. Data from CPUP were analysed to assess the

BACKGROUND: Fetal cardiovascular MRI complements ultrasound to assess fetal cardiovascular pathophysiology.PURPOSE: To develop a free-breathing method for retrospective fetal cine MRI using Doppler ultrasound (DUS) cardiac gating and tiny golden angle radial sampling (tyGRASP) for accelerated acquisition capable of detecting fetal movements for motion compensation.STUDY TYPE: Feasibility study.SUB

Ett klimat i förändring är något som påverkar oss alla. För staden och dess invånare innebär det bland annat mer nederbörd och en ökad risk för översvämningar. Det är därför viktigt att arbeta med klimatanpassningsåtgärder.Tanken med den här broschyren är att visa vilka lösningar som naturen kan bidra med. Den fokuserar på ett redan bebyggt område; Sofielund i Malmö. Innehållet bygger på intervjue
